"Excuse me, can I have a glass of alcohol"? - Jenna
Anyone who has known me more than a minute knows - I hate dislike weddings. I thought this movie would provide easy material for my beloved sport of bashing the much hyped saccharin filled fairytale Armageddon known as a wedding.
Wrong again!!
This movie is a REALLY funny caricature of potential wedding woes. I though it was smart, honest and daring. So authentic that it gives voice to the silent mantra of Maids of Dis-Honor everywhere:
"Are you F***ING kidding me"?
Megan - the soon to be sister in law (played by Melissa McCarthy- best know as Sookie from the Gilmore Girls) is brilliant. And I always support the gratuitous inclusion of an Irishman in a movie (Rhodes played by Chris O'Dowd from County Roscommon Ireland).
ALERT : Girls - it's the accent - don't fall for it.
A little sharper editing would have made the movie even better - there were a few unnecessary characters and a food poisoning storyline put in to appease the poor fellas dragged to this chic-flick. The bottom line is: grab some girlfriends and go!!
Four out of Five Stars!!
